AND THE WINNER IS:

JEREMY ALLEN WHITE AS CARMEN "CARMY" BERZATTO FOR ("POP") IN "THE BEAR"

This is the second win and eight nomination for Jeremy Allen White. He previously won for Homecoming (2019). He was also nominated individually for Shameless (2014), The Bear (2023) and ensembles of Shameless (2014-15, 17) and The Bear (2023). He wins for his performances as Carmen "Carmy" Berzatto on The Bear.

While I recognised that Jeremy was pretty incredible during the first season of The Bear it was tough for me to make the choice between him and my winner last year Nicholas for who would be my top choice. What led me more towards Nicholas is I already knew how incredible Jeremy was during the second season and that he would likely be a top choice in a years time. The second season of The Bear was pretty incredible television and White like he was in the first year an important part to the shows success.

As always he manages to balance the comedy and drama of the show so incredibly so and leads the show so well. I look forward to future seasons of the show where we will get to explore Carmy more and more will continue to enjoy Jeremy's brilliant work. It feels right many have become obsessed with White since this shows premiere I'm just happy I was a fan before this great show began.
